Katerina was (is) fantastic! GREAT time walking the castle grounds..drinking hot spiced wine and learning the history of Prague. Multi-lingual..talented..funny.. Katerina is the total package. This was the best tour I've had in a long time!..Thank you Katerina!

It was a real pleasure to spend time with Katka. Her knowledge and passion for her City was infectious and so incredibly informative. It was the perfect way to spend our first day in this beautiful City and subsequently we felt very much "at home" in Prague and I genuinely believe we actually got more out of our visit with this first hand knowledge at the beginning. Katka is a very easy person to be around and the minute that we met her we all knew that we would get along famously well.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you so much for very nice words. Happy to hear you enjoyed our tour. All the best!

Katerina was outstanding! We have already recommended her to friends we met in Europe. She spoke excellent English, had a in-depth knowledge of all things Prague and even has a degree in anthropology! I highly recommend!!

Tina Coulter

Katerina is an exemplary guide, professional in all the best ways. Knows and loves her city, her tours are extremely well thought out to cover city a logical and efficient manner, in a few hours she was able to provide us with a solid overview of Prague complete with suggestions and options of things to do on our own... enough to keep us going for weeks! I guess we will have to go back.

John Weiner

Katerina was very flexible about adjusting the content of the tour since we had taken an extensive tour of the Jewish Quarter the previous day. Her knowledge of the city and its history, people, and culture was exceptional and readily communicated. She was very personable, efficient and perceptive about when any of the four of us needed to take a break or move faster. Especially interesting were her first hand accounts of life during and after the Communist era. We heartily recommend her!!

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you so much for your nice review!

Katerina was wonderful! It felt like we were with an old friend. Having her share her city and history including her own family experiences was lovely and personal. We would encourage anyone to go with Tours by Locals you won't regret it!

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you for your great review! Happy:-)

Richard Sirois

We had a wonderful time with Katerina. She was at the meeting point on time, very knowledgeable, we learned a lot of things about Prague history. She very well managed the time we had.
I will not hesitate to recommend Katerina to anyone.
Thank you.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you for your nice review! Good to hear you had a wonderful time here:-)

Fred Holgate

Katerina was wonderful. She is well spoken and very knowledgeable about the City of Prague and History. She is very personable and engaging, we were so lucky to choose Katerina. Traveling Europe for 18 days, Katerina was by far the best tour guide we have had.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Fred, thank you very much for your nice review! I am very happy to hear you enjoyed your time here.
Please come back:-)! Regards to all of you from Prague:-)

Eric Hope

Katerina was a pleasure to tour with! Her childhood years were spent under Communist control, and so she was able to relate how her country has changed over the last several decades. She was extremely informative without sounding like a history lecture. I would highly recommend her to fellow travelers.

Jennifer Sweezer

LOVED Prague and Katerina! Her energy and sense of humor really made our tour. I'd been to Prague before and wasn't so excited about going back, but I did go back with family and loved every second of it. We did a four hour tour with Katerina and we hit everything, plus some, down to the brass plates on the sidewalk memorializing the people that lived in the buildings prior to WWII. I have noticed in other cities as well, but that attention to detail is what I wanted, and what we got from Katerina!

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you so much for your nice words, Jennifer! Great to hear you enjoyed your time here:-)

Audry Coffin

Very personable, knowledgeable and understandable. Katerina had answers to the many questions I asked. She had personal experiences she was able to share and give us a further understanding of this wonderful land of my forefathers.
I am so glad Katerina's schedule coincided with ours! I would highly, highly recommend her as a guide.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you very much for your nice words and glad to hear you had a great time here!

Melvin Chew

Katerina was fantastic! No other way to describe it. My family and i learn a tremendous amount about Prague, the people, their history as well as the historical sites. We had a 4 hour tour and whilst extensive, it felt that there was so much more to learn from Katerina. Top marks for her. Would love to go for another tour with her if time permits.

Wow! What a fantastic walking tour of Prague by Katerina. She is infinitely knowledgeable about the city and its past. Katerina described some of the history through her own experience and the stories told by her parents and grandparents. You can tell she is passionate about the city and the Czech Republic. When we met I told Katerina we wanted to change the tour since we had seen some of Prague the day before. Katerina took a deep breath and a few seconds later she said no problem we could do that.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you for your nice review!

Cristina Suarez

Katerina made my first day in Prague extremely memorable. She knows her history, provides so much insight, and totally sets you up to see the sights after you tour with her. The four hour tour was worth every penny and I highly recommend Katerina to anyone in need of a knowledgeable tour guide.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you for your nice commnent!

Philip Glennon

Katy is the best. She mixed stories of the Czech past and the present as she walked us over the Charles Bridge, up to the Castle area and back through Old Town. She gave us suggestions for other things to sees and a short lesson on using the tram system. We had a some lively discussions and lots of laughs. Her tour was the highlight of our time in Prague.

Christian Helbling

My wife and I and our two children (8 and 11) were visiting Prague from the United States and toured with Katerina on March 18, 2016. Katerina was wonderful with our children and quickly taught us everything we needed to know to make the most of our four nights in Prague. Her English is excellent and her tips saved us both time and money. She is an ideal guide and I enthusiastically recommend her to anyone interested in getting oriented in Prague. Thank you, Katarina!

Barbara Vacketta

We had a fabulous tour of Prague with Katerina. As a travel agent I wanted to experience a private tour. We had a short visit to Prague and were delighted to have Katerina as our guide. We never could have covered as much of the city on our own and would never have gotten so much detailed information from a guide book. We've decided we've been missing out for years on the best possible way to see a city. We would love to return and spend more time in many of the places that she highlighted for us.

Stacey Lawler

Prague is a "don't miss destination" and Katka brought the city's history and current events to life!!! Her "at a glance" tour was wonderful. She possesses a warm & engaging personality. Such a lovely time!

Joyce Hoye

Katka is a fabulous guide and very knowledgeable with a personality to match! She showed us the highlights of Prague within a 4-hour period of time and tailored the walking tour to what our group of 6 could manage. We especially loved hearing her personal stories about life under Communism and then afterwards. I highly recommend Katka's walking tour but would opt for the full-day tour if you have the time.

Yelena Bozo

Thank you Katerina for a wonderful tour of your beautiful city full of history and beautiful architecture!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us in such an engaging way! We enjoyed every minute! Can't wait to come back for more.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you for your nice words:-) Great to hear you enjoyed it!

Paul D.

Knowledgeable/informed, personable, intelligent with excellent English. Katerina arrived early, started with an overview of tour plans but wanted feedback on specific areas of interest. She was flexible and sensitive to the needs of those touring (rest stop, toilet, etc.). She made suggestions for things to do/see on our own and provided post tour contact number if questions arose. Excellent guide !!

Penny Preston

We were lucky enough to choose Katka as our guide for a half day tour in Prague.She made the history come alive, especially the more recent history, with her descriptions of how recent wars,revolutions & communism had impacted previous generations of her family. Her passion for her country was palpable & her enthusiasm was catching. She even went the extra mile bringing her own books to illustrate some of her points with maps & photos.She certainly made our time in Prague very memorable & special.

Bonnie Henry

We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Katerina. She worked with us to understand our entire Prague visit and made helpful suggestions for our non-your time. While it was a miserably cold and rainy day, Katerine had us intrigued by her grasp of history, culture and legends - we hardly noticed. She was sensitive to our needs and ensured we had time for a coffee to warm up. We will definitely recommnd her to our friends who make the trip!

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thanks a lot for your nice words!

Jean Link

We really enjoyed our Prague at a Glance tour with Katerina! Our group of 7 ranged from age 9 to age 72. Katerina made sure the tour was appropriate for the wide range of interests as well as the mobility of all the group members. She oriented us to the city and showed us the highlights so we could go back and explore in more depth on our own. She showed us how to navigate the transit system and gave us great restaurant recommendations as well. We highly recommend her and this tour for new visitors.

Alison Brookman

Katerina was really interesting, good fun and amenable to slight diversions when requested. We also appreciated her way of showing us places, taking us to whet our appetite and then letting us know how we could come back and see more if we wanted. We all really enjoyed our tour. It was especially great that our 17 year old daughter also loved it, .At no stage did we feel that we wanted it to end.

TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Alison,
Thank you very much for taking your time to write your reference!
I am glad to read you enjoyed our tour, great! Thank you!

Suzanne Hall

We enjoyed an interesting and very informative day with Katerina. We saw many things we had never seen before in Prague. We really enjoyed Katerina's explanations and stories. She was a fabulous guide and we would highly recommend her to others. Prague is so beautiful and it was nice to see it with someone so knowledgeable about the history and the city.

Jean-Pierre Lehmann

I had never been to Prague. I was extremely fortunate to have Katerian as my guide. She deserves the five stars (or more) for her professionalism and personality. She has an infectuous enthusiasm in the way she talks and describes the city. She is highly knowledgeable and articulate. I have had many, many guides in my (long) life. I would rank her definitely in the top five. I was enriched by the visit to Prague and by meeting Katerina.
